Learn amazing and easy-to-follow skin tone coloring techniques from professional artist Lisa Mitrokhin. Lisa is a painter, illustrator, author, YouTuber, and instructor who is here to teach her secrets on coloring pale, olive and dark skin tones. All that is needed to play along is paper, colored pencils (of any brand), and enthusiasm. Research has shown that human beings respond to human faces more positively than to anything else, followed only by dogs, cats and sunsets. This means that using portraits in art, whether it be drawing, painting, or coloring, will make the work more likely to be noticed and admired.

This course is structured in three parts, with short (5 to 15 minute) lessons designed for students to follow at their own pace. Lisa starts the course with pale skin tones, moves on to olive skin, and completes the journey with dark skin tones. Whether a colorist, a drawing student, or an accomplished artist, Lisa provides everything needed to follow along. Each skin tone comes with an original Lisa Mitrokhin digital painting, a grey-scale coloring page of the same character, and a sepia coloring page. Students can print out the coloring pages and color-along with her. They will learn her color selection strategy, new and different shading techniques, the theory of skin tones coloring, and understand why certain colors appear the way that they do on skin. After completing this course, students will be able to apply this theory and these techniques to any coloring or drawing.

It is important to note that this is NOT a portrait drawing course. This course focuses ONLY on skin tone coloring technique. No prior knowledge of drawing is necessary to take this course.
